The packaging of dried foodstuff such as cereals, noodles, crackers and biscuits requires a good moisture barrier and sealing properties to prevent the product from losing its crispiness, as well as to aid in general product protection and good display of the product.

Dry food film is often used in a form, fill and seal (FFS) operation and requires a sealant that peels easily when the bag is opened.
